Lighting Up The Chakras

Our energy centres or chakras are associated with colours; the base chakra with red; the sacral chakra with orange; the solar plexus chakra with yellow; the heart chakra with green and pink; the throat chakra with blue; the third eye chakra with indigo; and the crown chakra with violet or white.
Working with the colours of the chakras can help you redress the imbalances that occur when there are blockages in our flow of subtle energy.

If you are a Reiki practitioner with Level II, visualise the power symbol in the palms of your hands and activate it before you begin the following meditation. if not, then just follow the meditation as indicated:
Focus on the colours of the chakras by visualising drawing in your breath at the base chakra and watching it light up each chakra in the associated colour as it travels up to the crown chakra.

Sit on your cushion. Close your eyes and on the first in-breath visualise white light entering at the base chakra, which glows a bright red in response. Picture your second breath entering in the same way but following up to the sacral chakra, which shines orange. Then, on your next breath, imagine the light reaching the solar plexus chakra, which glows yellow. In subsequent breaths imagine the light reaching in turn the heart chakra and shine green or pink, the throat chakra shining a blue light, the third eye chakra shining indigo light and finally the crown chakra shining violet or white.

In your mind's eye, envision each chakra radiating light in its own colour and finally, imagine all of them glowing at once.
Rebalancing your chakras in this way will boost your sense of well-being.
